Description
Built by the renowned Clark Ryder, the Southern Cross 35 is a true bluewater voyager. A Tom Gillmer design, this canoe sterned cutter rig has a classic elegance to her. Rod rigging, wide decks, a skeg hung rudder, sweeping shear and cutaway forefoot- the Southern Cross is just meant to go to sea. There were only 35 of these hulls made, many of which were made for owner build-out of the interior. This particular vessel was one that was factory finished, resulting in a higher quality yacht.

Sails and Rigging
Ths stainless steel rod rigging is anchored to solid beams integral to the hull. The keel stepped mast has internal halyards for reduced windage. The spars are painted w/Algrip. Inboard chainplates provide excellent manueverability on deck and create a narrower sheeting angle, improving windward performance. All sails have been maintained and serviced annually.

Hull and Deck
The Southern Cross hull is hand laid fiberglass, with a core of semi-rigid Airex foam sandwiched between the inner and outer hulls. Besides it's excellent sound and thermal insulative properties, Airex also provides a hull that is thicker and stiff, able to absorb local impacts more forgivingly than a solid hull.
